For the mighty goal of answering the question above, I’m joined by Yaro Starak. Yaro is one of the most famous bloggers out there, and has branded the term “live the laptop lifestyle”. Over the years, he has helped thousands of people launch successful businesses. All of which, had a blog as their core.

Forget everything you’ve learned about making passive income online. Forget about guest posting, link building, and social media. Let’s go back to the basics. To the core of what being an entrepreneur means: becoming a successful business owner.

In today’s episode you will learn:

How to stop delaying the “money getting” process

Why building your first online business around “a personal brand” might not be the best option for you

How to streamline your marketing & sales by tapping into existing channels where money is already being made

How to do effective market research and uncover trending markets with little competition

How to learn your competition, and outdo them

How our guest built in 18 months a business generating over $250,000/month (including the exact steps he took!)

“Personal branding” is the biggest hype right now. Many are obsessed with turning themselves into “the product” that people buy. This is no little due to many gurus giving advice like:

“There is no one like you in the world. That’s why your unique selling proposition should be YOU! Then, no one can copy it!”

This advice is hard to follow and extremely time-consuming. But more than that, by definition – it’s not scalable!

The entire sales and marking process is based on people buying “you”! Congratulations, you’ve just cemented yourself into your own business. Is that a bad thing? Only if you ever want to enjoy the money you’re making – without the business crashing while you’re away!

This is why in today’s episode, my guest and I go back to “business 101”:

Choose a rising market

Find an existing channel where money is already being made

Learn what products are doing well in the market and what problems they solve (or what desires they meet)

Find the shortcomings of those products, and to make something that solves it better

Put your product in the market

Promote it using the existing channel where the customers already are and are accustomed to spending money

This is exactly, to the dot, how Chad Mureta built his app empire. And it’s also how today’s guest, Ryan Moran, built in 18 months a business that’s making over $250,000 a month.

I also seen Ryan mentor a good friend of mine recently. That friend went on to building his business from zero to 5-figure monthly income – in just a couple of months!

No matter where you are in your entrepreneurial journey, you’ll want to scroll to the top of this post, and click play right now! Don’t miss the information on today’s episode!
